Excursions - Schwarzenburg (Schweizer Mittelland)

Impressive riverscape. Restaurant Schwarzwasserbrücke with lots of opportunites for children to play and have fun.

Formerly the scene of imperial parties – now one of the finest medieval ruined castles in Switzerland: well away from the traffic, on a rocky crag that falls steeply away on three sides, are the partially restored walls of Grasburg castle. There are 140 steps to climb up to the castle. The well-preserved ruin can be explored in safety and is a popular destination for families, schools and hiking groups.
